Chapter 124
There were several people tied up inside, both men and women, and the smell was extremely bad. Xia Beibei took a quick look and then retracted her mind.
"Yue, no, the smell is too strong." Xia Beibei stuffed the wind lamp into Li Mu's hand and ran to the corner to vomit.
Qiao Sheng took some water from his wrist bag, and at this time, he didn't care whether it was cold or not, and asked her to rinse her mouth and drink a few more sips to suppress it.
Beside him, besides the crying woman, there was Xia Beibei who was leaning against the wall and vomiting. Li Mu didn't want Qiao Sheng to do this kind of work, so he asked her to wait at the entrance of the cellar with the lamp in hand, and he went down to rescue people.
Resisting the stench, Li Mu first untied the ropes of the person closest to the cave entrance, and then untied the ropes of the others. Some people wanted to come up first, which frightened Qiao Sheng, who was also at the cave entrance, and he dared not climb up, so he turned back to help.
When everyone climbed up, Qiao Sheng saw an old acquaintance following Li Mu at first glance. It was really funny. This elder sister was caught by the cannibals last time, and this time she was caught by Old Lady Wang. It was simply an inseparable fate with the aborigines.
Seeing Qiao Sheng this time, Luo Ya did not dare to stab him, but hid behind Li Mu.
That shy look made Xia Beibei, who was standing next to him, want to vomit again. Xia Beibei suppressed her evil intention and before she could say anything, Li Mu quickly walked to Qiao Sheng and asked her to help pat the place where Luo Ya had just touched.
Of course, he couldn't say that he was touched by someone. He said that he might have been rubbed with dust in the cellar and it was not very clean. This wave of yin and yang made Xia Beibei very happy, and Luo Ya's expression was awkward.
There were six women and four men tied up in the cellar, only four of them were players, and the others were indigenous people, and the four women living nearby were also indigenous people.
The method of distinguishing was even simpler, just ask the ID directly. The players would directly say their ID, and the indigenous people would hear that they were asking for their names, so they would answer with their names.
"It's quite artificial intelligence, it can actually block keywords." Qiao Sheng found it very novel.
As they were talking, Wei Xiaoyan and his friends pushed a man in his forties, hunched over, no taller than 1.6 meters, and with a Mediterranean look into the yard.
"You bunch of robbers, what are you doing? My family is very poor, I have nothing, please let me go." The man spoke arrogantly and begged at times, and his mental state was obviously problematic.
Huo Qing and Huo Feng came in and said that this guy looked abnormal, but he ran really fast, leisurely moving forward. If they hadn't been in the track and field team of their school, they would have let him run away.
"We found it in the woods outside the yard. When we passed by, this guy was looking into the yard." Wei Xiaoyan explained the situation at that time and pressed the tied man to the ground.
"Is this the tall and handsome son that Old Lady Wang mentioned? A tall man of 1.6 meters? Can a Mediterranean be considered handsome now? How dare a man in his 40s introduce an 18-year-old girl like me?" Xia Beibei couldn't help complaining. Was Old Lady Wang crazy?
Qiao Sheng patted her hands and asked the aboriginals what they thought, whether they wanted to stay or leave the island, and let them deal with the mother and son.
The three men and three women in the cellar were determined to kill the mother and son. They had been here for quite some time, and the mother and son had nothing to do with them. Among the four women, only one was hesitant, and the other three also wanted to kill them.
"I seem to be pregnant, and I don't want the baby in my belly to be fatherless." Suddenly everyone's eyes were focused on this woman, and she was a little unskilled in her speech.
"If we don't kill them, we'll get you a raft, and the three of you can go to the sea. This island definitely can't accommodate the two of them. If you want to follow them, just follow them." The woman who lived in the next room and looked at the older woman said. "
Sister, I was wrong. Don't chase me away. You will definitely help me take care of the baby after it is born, right?" The pregnant woman cried again.
This situation confused Qiao Sheng and the others. How could the eldest sister be pregnant? When they asked, they realized how heinous the mother and mother were. All the women who lived in houses on the island could be considered as the daughters-in-law of Old Lady Wang. Including the one who died while giving birth to a grandson, there were actually five!
The one called the eldest sister was the first daughter-in-law married by the Wang family. Her name was Lianhua. She had lived in Old Lady Wang's yard before and had been married for more than 20 years. At that time, the family lived on a boat. When there was a storm, the boat capsized. Of the five people in the family, only she was left and drifted to this island.
Old Lady Wang saved her. At first, she really served the mother and mother like a cow and a horse. In ten years, she got pregnant five times, but she was exhausted from working in the fields.
Later, they decided that Lianhua was a hen that didn't lay eggs. Later, they brought back four more girls. The first three never got pregnant. It was not until the last girl, because she could do more work before, that she was able to rest after getting pregnant, and she was able to keep the baby.
Unexpectedly, when she was pregnant, she was fed too much by Old Lady Wang, and she had a difficult delivery. She cried for a long time when giving birth,
but the baby didn't come out. There were only these people on the island, and there was not even a midwife. At first, Lianhua could follow in and help bring hot water, but she was later driven out. In the end, the child was born, but the mother was gone.
"I don't know what evil they did. The four of us didn't even see Xiaolian's body when she was buried." Lianhua said with tears in her eyes. Xiaolian was only a dozen years old, like a flower bud. When she was not pregnant, she helped her with housework every day. After she became pregnant, she would secretly save delicious food for her. It was not until she was beaten by Old Lady Wang twice that she dared not to save it.
"These two are not human beings. Are you sick? You gave birth to a child for the devil. This kind of child has fundamental genetic problems. It will be a disaster if you keep it!" Xia Beibei became more and more angry as she listened. How could a victim feel sorry for the perpetrator? She really wanted to pry open that woman's head to see if there was something wrong inside.
"Beibei, let them make their own choice. We can only help them. The final choice is still theirs. We can help them once, but we can't help them every time. Just do your best and leave it to fate." Qiao Sheng had heard in the news before that trafficked women were unwilling to leave. In the end, it still depends on the choice of the parties involved.
After listening to Lianhua's story, everyone was very angry. The son of Mrs. Wang, who was lying on the ground, was still struggling, shouting that they were husband and wife and couldn't be so cruel.
Xia Beibei walked over and kicked him, kicking him right in the heart, and the man was speechless.
Qiao Sheng and his friends were waiting for their final decision. The three men, three women and four wives discussed for a while, and it was Lianhua who came out and told Qiao Sheng and his friends to kill them. They could not leave such troubles behind, otherwise they would come back sooner or later, and then they would be really isolated and helpless.
However, the pregnant woman would definitely give birth to the baby in her belly, and they would be able to raise it. She would also help raise Xiaolian's son, not for this man, but for Xiaolian. Although there are many wild animals in the mountains, they can survive if they are careful.
"Wild animals in the mountains? Are they wild boars, lions, and brown bears?" Xia Beibei asked uncertainly.
"Yes, they come down every year to damage the crops I plant." Lianhua sighed.
"Then you don't have to worry. We have cleared all the wild animals on the mountain. Now there may be only pheasants and rabbits left. When the time comes, you can be more diligent. Not only can you grow crops, but you can also go hunting together. Without oppression, you can survive anyway. You can go fishing on the shore in spring." Qiao Sheng's words were like a reassurance, making all the NPCs present very happy.
Old Lady Wang and her son were drowned in the sea. Qiao Sheng and his friends did not go to see them. Before leaving, Lianhua pulled her and Xia Beibei to a corner and gave each of them a wooden jewelry. It was said that her brother specially found good wood and branches to make it for her every time he went ashore to sell fish. The
one given to Qiao Sheng was a wooden hairpin. It could be vaguely seen that the carving on it was very rough. After years of rubbing, it is now very smooth.
Xia Beibei's bracelet was made of chicken blood vine. Qiao Sheng searched through her bag and found that he had nothing with him except weapons. It turned out that Xia Beibei had stuffed a lot of things in her bag at some point. He took out five pieces of dark cloth, some corn and pheasants.
Qiao Sheng was stunned when he saw the things she took out. He didn't know when this girl had stuffed them in her bag.
After both parties said thank you and separated, Xia Beibei whispered that she wanted to give the cloth and corn to Cao Meng, but she had never found the opportunity. She had just killed the pheasants in the mountains and stuffed them in her bag so that she didn't have to take them back and pack them up.
Qiao Sheng felt that he had no right to control who she gave the cloth to. She was an adult and should have her own judgment. Even if her judgment was wrong, her family didn't lack those things.
After solving the problems of these aborigines, there were still four players, one man and three women, to be solved. She even checked the system for 95% and estimated that the last step would be to get a boat for these four players to leave.
But looking at Luo Ya, Qiao Sheng really didn't want to pay attention to her. He took the four people to the shore where they parked their boats, and didn't even ask them what they thought. He told them that he would help build a small wooden boat, and they would have to rely on themselves from now on.
"Can't we continue to stay on the island? Why should we listen to you?" Luo Ya started to complain again.
Qiao Sheng and Li Mu actually didn't tell anyone about her problem, but that didn't stop her from walking into the muzzle of a gun.
"Don't want to leave? Don't want to listen to us? Then I'll help you arrange a ghost marriage for Old Lady Wang's son. I'll definitely meet your requirements. If you want to stay here, stay here forever!" Xia Beibei has her own way of dealing with this kind of thorn.
Luo Ya was so scared by this sentence that she dared not speak and hid behind the male player.
Qiao Sheng and Cao Meng gave Xia Beibei a thumbs up at the same time. All the problems were really killed at the source. This trick of cutting off the firewood from the bottom of the pot was really great.
Now it was dark, and they had to solve the problem of housing for them. Qiao Sheng provided the materials. Li Mu and Wei Xiaoyan each held a construction hammer and started to build a floating board some distance away from their boat.
The male player who was rescued was not very old, only 19 years old, named Hai Doudou, and he also followed behind to help with the work. Huo Qing
and Huo Feng carried machetes into the forest to cut wood. Jian Fanling said hello to Cao Meng and went back to her boat to make dinner. Qiao Sheng and Xia Beibei also returned to their boats. There were only three female players left on the shore. Seeing that everyone was busy, the other two female players except Luo Yayi also went to Li Mu's place to help pass the planks and do what they could.
